Pitch Report

The surface at the Aga Khan Sports Club Ground in Nairobi has a balanced nature, with good support for the bowlers. Out of the 4 games played so far in the ongoing T20I series, two matches each have been won by the teams batting and bowling first. However, the chasing has been quite typical here so, the captain winning the toss will look ahead to bat first and put the opponent in a tough chase.
